Understanding GST & Customs Compliance for International Trade

What is GST Export Compliance?

GST export compliance involves adhering to all Goods and Services Tax regulations when exporting. Under GST, exports are treated as "zero-rated supplies" (0% tax), enabling exporters to claim refunds on input taxes paid during production.

What is Customs Compliance?

Customs compliance ensures adherence to all import-export regulations, proper documentation, correct goods classification, accurate valuation, and timely payment of duties, following procedures set by DGFT and Customs authorities.

Why Both Are Critical for Your Business

Cash Flow Optimization

Unlock refunds worth 12-18% of export value.

Risk Mitigation

Avoid penalties, seizures, and legal issues.

Competitive Advantage

Faster clearances and lower landed costs.

Regulatory Compliance

Stay updated with changing trade policies.
